Clinical infection characteristics and drug resistance trend of Acinetobacter baumannii in a hospital from 2020 to 2022
Objective To investigate the clinical distribution characteristics and drug resistance of Acinetobacter baumannii in a hospital,and to provide evidence for clinical medication and effective infection control.Methods The strains of isolated from clinical samples of a hospital from January 2020 to December 2022 were collected for routine identification and drug susceptibility test using Vitek Ⅱ automatic microbial analyzer.Results The 1 137 strains of Acinetobacter baumannii were mainly isolated from sputum,accounted for 84.61%.Male patients were more infected than female patients,and the proportion of patients ≥65 years old was the highest,accounted for 50.22%Acinetobacter baumannii strains were mainly distributed in the respiratory department and intensive care unit,accounted for 19.26%and 19.00%respectively.The resistance rate of Acinetobacter baumannii strains to most antibiotics tested was>60%.The resistance rates to imipenem and meropenem were 63.07%-71.05%and 65.14%-73.17%,respectively.The resistance rate to tigacycline was the lowest,ranged from 3.67%to 6.10%.The drug resistance rates to ceftazidime(65.24%-76.14%),cefuroxime(94.21%-97.05%),ceftriaxone(92.07%-98.12%)and imipenem(70.12%-71.05%)all increased during 3 years,while the drug resistance rates to cefoperazone/sulbactam(71.04%-65.15%),cefepime(87.20%-66.22%),cefazolin(95.12%-91.15%),meropenem(73.17%-68.10%),levofloxacin(54.27%-42.09%)and amicacin(40.24%-23.06%)all decreased.The difference was statistically significant(P<0.05).Conclusion The resistance of Acinetobacter baumannii was serious,the monitoring of bacterial resistance should be strengthened.Rational use of antibiotics should be adopted.
